Merges can be used to position controls in groups for both grid and UX components. Merging controls is only possible when the grid format is columnar and the Number of Layout Columns property, found under the Layout Options on the Properties page, is set to a value greater than 1.

For example, if you have a firstname field and a lastname field, you could combine them under one merged group and give it the title 'Full Name'.

When designing a grid component with Columnar formatting, you may position controls by placing them into frames. A frame has a label and places a box around selected fields. You can use the frame feature in columnar layouts, such as columnar grids, search forms, and detail view forms. This example shows how to create a columnar grid with 2 frames.
